Intercultural Competence

This winter school is designed for those who are curious and wish to develop specific abilities to foster intercultural sensitivity and bridge differing cultural systems.

Narrative and the Mind

This edition of the Netherlands Winter School on Narrative focuses on the interplay between narrative and the mind. During the one-week course, lectures and workshops will examine how cognition is informed by narrativity, and how narratives are shaped by our cognitive engagement.

Climate Change and the Long-Term Future
Climate change is among the biggest challenges humanity faces today. How should individuals, societies, and humanity at large respond to climate change and other long-term challenges? In this winter school, different researchers will take a PPE perspective in exploring climate change and our ethical and political obligations towards future people.
